I have a forum (PhpBB) on my free server that i use. But in a few weeks I am hoping to buy some hosting. I want to just transfer the forum over, i tried backing up my database but i get like 100 pages like this:

Code: Select all

VALUES('949', '2894', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '664', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '4468', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '1415', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '720', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '1177', '0'); INSERT INTO phpbb_search_wordmatch (post_id, word_id, title_match) VALUES('949', '131', '0');
So with this "code" how do i restore the database on the new server?

You can run all your queries through phpmyadmin, and it will add all your database contents to the desired database.
